We are red hot going into day two. You asked for them, and I gave them to you. 3 picks 3 winners and we are not going to stop. Keep riding with me and by the national championship we’ll all be rich.

Cincinnati vs. Iowa

NASHVILLE, TN – MARCH 18: Trevor Moore #5 of the Cincinnati Bearcats high fives Jarron Cumberland #34 against the Nevada Wolf Pack during the first half in the second round of the 2018 Men’s NCAA Basketball Tournament at Bridgestone Arena on March 18, 2018 in Nashville, Tennessee.

This game seems like a pretty good way to start off the day. Cincy is coming off a huge win against Houston in the American Championship. Before this game, their coach told the media they would be having an open tryout because the guys on the team had a lack of effort. Since those comments Cincy is playing with passion and emotion. Take Cincy -4.5 to start your day off with a win.

UC Irvine vs. Kansas State

The anteaters or on an absolute tear right now, they’ve won their last 16 games in a row and the closest game they’ve played this month was an 8 point win. They can shoot the ball but more importantly they can really shut down a good team. Kansas State was a really good basketball team but towards the end of the year they have lost their key star Dean Wade. I don’t think Kansas State will be prepared for how good this UC Irvine team is. Take UC Irvine +4.5

Texas Tech vs. Northern Kentucky

Texas Tech has been a fun team to watch all year long. They have been an absolute dominant force behind Jarett Culver. With the best defense in the country I don’t think Northern Kentucky has any type of shot to keep this game manageable. With how good TTU shoots the 3 and with how suffocating their defense is they should roll easily in to the next round. TTU -13.5 and that’s all you need.

Those are your 3 locks for the day but watch for a later post I’ll have some late night winners for you as well. Be sure to follow my action network. @JTPolinski to follow my personal bets as well. Good luck everyone
